Key Word: conventional metaphor, novel metaphor Outline Introduction Conventional and novel metaphors Their similarities Their differences The relationship between them Conclusion Conventional metaphor mapping Novel metaphor 1.The mapping involves in an amount of knowledge and inference and is unidirectional 2.Novel metaphor is created in an imaginable and novel way and happens at any time 3. It is not readily accepted by a community Their similarities Being involved in the invariance principle B. Having the correspondences construed through a context A. Being involved in the invariance principle According to Lakoff, “[the invariance principle means that] Metaphorical mappings preserve the cognitive topology (that is, the image-schema structure) of the source domain, in a way consistent with the inherent structure of the target domain” (215). For example: A. Being involved in the invariance principle 1.Conventional metaphor: Love is a journey Their differences The different coining ways B. The different motivations of mappings of conventional and novel image-schematic metaphors A. The different coining ways Conventional metaphor B. The different motivations of mappings of conventional and novel image-schematic metaphors At first sight, definitions of several terminologies should be revealed before coming to the point: image metaphors, image-schematic metaphors, conventional image-schematic metaphor and novel image-schematic metaphor B. The different motivations of mappings of conventional and nov
